Topic: anybody using 1-Wire devices? (Read 1157 times)

On IRC chat I saw that 1-Wire used to be supported but it isn't any more:"possy: valentt, there used to be a 1-wire device template. Unfortunately it got lost somehow. Maybe totallymaxed / Uplink_ still have that device template in their sqlCVS"

I have some 1-wire devices (though not yet connected - although I have a weatherstation mounted on my roof, and some pressure/temperature/brightness sensors). It is my intention to wire them to a NSLU2 to record data in a database on a connected usb stick, and then to query the database when I need information.

A long term project - i.e. don't expect me to actually do it any time soon.

I currently have several 1 wire temperature sensors connected to an arduino.Currently it uploads the data to pachube.com, but I would be interested to know if someone gets it working with LMCE, maybe LMCE could use some of the pachube services.

Yup - I monitor energy / power using 1-Wire and have set up around 30 temperature sensors using an EDS 1-Wire Hub and the amazingly useful One Wire File System (OWFS).

1-Wire Rocks!

Would be interesting to have energy monitoring integrated into LinuxMCE using 1-wire methinks.

I'm waiting for a 1-wire solar sensor- so would like to somehow be able to control the light brightness this way as well. At the moment my 1-Wire server is separate from the LinuxMCE system - if I could tap into LinuxMCE using perl (ala MH) my life would be complete. - I cant get derailed-rhouse to work for ruby

by the way how else can control devices from a scripts -please can someone point me in the right direction
